Proper Ways Of Maintaining And Storing Your Leatherwear

The way you care for your leatherwear will tell how long it's going to be around for you to enjoy. You want your items to last as they never go out of fashion. And at the same time they cost you a fortune to get a hold of them! The following are ways to care for some common leatherwear.

When storing your leather jacket, use wide and padded hangers to retain its shape. If it becomes wet, simply let it air dry. Refrain from storing it in hot and humid areas. Applying protective spray on it before wearing it outside is for the same reason bb cream is applied to the face.

Leather pants are particularly susceptible to wearing away. That's why it's important to apply your pair with a layer of protective spray. Keep them away from getting in contact with any fluids. But in any case, quickly use a dry rag or towel to dry them. Let it air dry. Never hang your pants next to a heater or under the sun to dry. Know that some stains can be permanent, like paint or ink.

Remove your leather watch when you sleep or take a bath so the strap could breathe. For daily cleaning, use a soft dry cloth. Once a week, however, wipe the strap with a damp cloth and leave to air dry. Follow it with an application of beeswax or any available protective wax for such strap. Some opt for a few drops of olive oil, followed by a polishing using cloth or shoe buff.

Store your leather belts hanging, with the buckle attached to a hook. Never store them rolled tightly or folded. Clean it with a dry cloth regularly. Once in a while, wipe it off with a damp cloth, followed a dry one, then let air dry. When thoroughly dry, apply conditioner or beeswax to prevent cracking and renew its color and luster.

Perhaps no other leatherwear receives more wear and tear than your leather shoes. Before storing them, wipe off dust or dirt with a dry rag. Apply a layer of beeswax or shoe-shine polish to prevent them from drying out during storage. Beeswax will also provide them with much-needed waterproofing.

There are also some important things you should know when storing boots. Make sure you store them upright, and not horizontally or on top of one another. Sure you wouldn't want cracks marring the beauty of your knee-high leather brown boots. To prevent cracks from appearing, insert water bottles, or rolled magazines or newspapers in them when not in use.
